I wrote the both scripts:

create_database_arulbero.py
search_key_arulbero.py


parameters:

private key interval: from 1 to 2^32
keys stored: 2^32 / 2^7 = 2^25 (1 each 128)
bits for each key = 64
size of database: 257 MB

time to create the database: 3 min 55 s

time to find the private key of a single random public key in the db: 0.1 - 0.3 s

This code works very well as does the code on the OP's Github page.
